Flavius Artemis the centurion page 18 by ric gustafson
Pilate stared at Jesus. " Are you a King?".
" You say rightly that I am a King, for this reason I was born and came into this world". Jesus stared intently at Pilate. " Everyone of the truth hears my voice".
Pilate was silent. He looked at Flavius. He wasn't sure what to say next. He heard the growing mob outside. He knew this prisoner was no threat. He knew he had to appease the mob outside. He looked again at Jesus. " What is truth?".
Before Jesus could answer, Pilate walked back up the steps to the open balcony. He now faced a growing hostile crowd. " I find no fault in him at all".
Someone in the crowd shouted. " He stirs up the people".
Another person shouted. " He teaches all over Judea starting from Galilee".
Pilate gave the crowd a startled look. " Is this man a Galilean?". He glanced at Flavius.
" Centurion, take this prisoner to Herod".
